Ah yes Adam Jensen the 1st Man married Parasite Eve while Kane killed his brother and create the Brotherhood of Nod, but all wil be saved by the Solid Snake himself David from the evils of the world as the Bible says. And David shall return in the form of the son of man JC, JC Denton.
"I'm treating my pyrokinesis problem with medication." ...um. What the hell were the clinical trials like? That control group must've been a nightmare.
Apparently it is important that the sperm not have mitochondria, even though the fetus only ever has mitochondrial DNA from the mother. The sperm mitochondria in the tail just fall off and die.
One thing I never got over: Aya's apartment has a burning oil drum in it, with an open flame, and not only do the sprinklers not go off, the room somehow doesn't catch fire.
That's big distracting question. The other question is how does she look so well kept when she not only lives a crazy bum but also in what looks like a building condemned due to mold and a meth lab.
@@Kspice9000 its not her apartment, it is some empty lot maeda drag her into He can't escort aya to hospital due to evacuation & he doesn't know anybody who know aya
THAT'S NOT AYA'S APARTMENT, BAKA, IT WAS NEVER MADE CLEAR THAT WAS AYA'S TO BEGIN WITH. CHANCES STANDING IT'S A HOBO CAMP IN AN ABANDON APARTMENT BUILDING. CONSIDERING THE STORY IS NYC 97 (PRE-091101), THIS WOULD MAKE SENSE.
Not gonna lie, when the series first started I was lukewarm towards Bill and Jeff saying "Why are they here, Zuckerberg is enough". But I slowly grew to like them and now since they aren't here, I really really miss them
Mtochondria were once free bacteria who had the ability to use normally toxic oxygen, who were eaten by our ancestors, bur instead of devouring them, they developed a symbiosis. So yes, Mitochondria have their own genome, which (fun fact) is inherited from the mother
"The endosymbiotic hypothesis for the origin of mitochondria" is what its referred to as, although it should be noted that we don't know for a fact that's how it came about, but it seems highly likely.
Came at the same time with RE2 Technologically, its inferior than RE2 (fully voiced scenes & faster action game) but its what square can do & they already establish relationship with enterbrain, enix division of book publishing that has rights for parasite eve Its about something 1997-2000 squaresoft, they got big through FF7 & alot of experimental using FF7 ideas to make 10 of new games in 2 year gap
@@somechinesedude5466 I wouldn't say Inferior, sense RE2 was a full horror action and Parasite Eve was a Action RPG horror with both having a difference of the pacing and the way of telling the story in the game. The action rpg is going to have moments of high actions, during the combat and moments you feel like you can breath ( upgrade your gear, ect), and you can see growth in your character. while RE2 was more about keep moving sense you was always being chased and your never stronger then what weapon you currently have, PE main story telling was through the videos, and RE2 was through a bit of both videos and some collectibles( items in game, news paper, books, ect.) The reason why I said it a love child is because when you play PE, you get the classic battle style of rpg, where the enemy spawns in, you have a hp that grows as you lvl. but everything looks and feels like it almost belongs to the more horror of RE style of that time frame, and even upgrade your gear to do more damage and unlike most rpg at that time, you wasn't limited to "okay, I hit you, then you hit me" type of turn base battle, you could run around and evade, and your weapon cool down was you reloading while in combat, making the fight more seamless while in RE2 you just get weapons that does x, y, and z damage with no growth and maybe some body armor so you can take an extra hit without dying.( yes one could argue finding different ammo types but they still only do x amount of damage as long as you have them) and you had to bring up a menu in order to reload your gun. While I could not find the exact engine P.E. ran on, I can say having plaid both that they are both good games for different reasons, neither being Inferior to the other. sense they both had hardware limitations at the time and timing of their release and the market in which they was released in. here in the US, PE did not do very well, sense the book it's based on wasn't really heard of in the US and RE2 had already had a good foot hold of the NA Game market at that time with the Release of RE1. sense they came out that same year and around the same, and developers trying to cash in with the new area that the PS1 was building up. trying new things in the game and really explore the idea of 3D games. long story short, both games are great for their era, both games was rush to be put out for their reasons. And Square was big before FF7, releasing several great games before FF7, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Square_video_games, There is a list of many games and lots of them still, It only feels like Square got big because of FF7 was due to the fact the internet was becoming more of thing that everyone can use, and sense the google search engine itself was launched the same year 1998, and information was becoming so much easier to get.
Heya ... Elderly Canadian gamer here. Just thought I'd mention that familiarity with the term ESP might be a generational thing. I'm over 50, and ESP, standing for "extrasensory perception" was an EXTREMELY common term a few decades ago, as a stand-in for a wide variery of "psychic phenomena". (At least, it was common in North America.) I probably learned it as a child reading my mother's supermarket tabloids, and back then you could use the abbreviation freely in conversation, and people would know exactly what you were talking about. It's true, though, that I haven't heard it mentioned in quite a while. Keep up the good work! (My father, who's 94, and Sicilian, AND used to be a sailor, thought that your Costa Concordia video was hilarious. Ever since the sinking, whenever an expected visitor is late, he's said, "Maybe he fell into the lifeboat.")
missing a last part of the story , cause once you finish the game in new game + you unlock the tower which you have to fight throught 77 floors , once on top this happen (from the wiki) : The boss in the last floor of the building floor 77 is the true final boss of the game and it has the form of Aya Brea's deceased sister, Maya. Aya fighting Truebred Eve. The final boss explains to Aya that Dr. Hans Klamp cultivated the cells of the original Eve to analyze. When Melissa Pearce was giving birth to the Ultimate Being, she created a nest there. In case Melissa and the Utimate Being failed, the purebred would still remain. Aya speaks with her sister, and they engage in battle against the purebred. The purebred has taken Aya's Liberate form and can use attacks similar to Aya and more. After the purebred is defeated, the mitochondria inside Aya begin to rebel against her. The explanation is that Aya's mitochondria have now reached a higher evolutionary stage than Maya's, but Maya's personality has suddenly become dominant and begun to fight off the Eve persona. Maya eventually wins, purging the Eve persona from herself and protects Aya by preventing the original Eve from taking over her. Aya leaves the building by herself, although she apparently has gained some sort of connection with her dead sister. Maya's body is not physically present in either scenario, only Eve is. What actually happens is arguable due to the scene's lack of camera angles for certain characters.
@@jicudi I remembered it being hard af but after replaying it it jus went down quick af with a illy handgun that I've upgraded since ever with no multiple shots for bigger damage per bullet
That ending was awesome yet unnerving and kinda borderlines on cosmic horror. Aya won and her powers evolve, but as a consequence, her cells compel her to sorta hivemind every living thing around her. Like, sorry Aya. You are now the guardian and queen of your new species now. Hope you enjoy your new powers and never being surprised ever again.
I love games like this because you have a japanese guy trying to depict what he thinks america is like, and what american policing is like. And honestly, it's way too accurate despite basically being die hard.
There's not enough games set in winter in NYC, it's an atmosphere that isn't used enough. Parasite Eve has that late 90s feel that's really hard to put your finger on, but the tone stands out.
"What happened to the ultimate being?" Well, in a nutshell: He fought battle against some giant lizard creature with a space station up it's anus and, after the battle was finished, fell down to earth and burned to a crisp, only to then be replaced by an android, who's not really an android, but who everyone thinks is an android, only to eventually turn out to not be an android but the real ultimate being.
There's something special about video games, especially Japanese ones, where the writer(s) of the game bases the whole plot on something real that they don't have the faintest understanding of. And then the effect is multiplied when the person expleening the synopsis is just as lost as the writer obviously was.
yeah mitochondria are technically separate from the body. but that does not mean they have the capacity, to become a independent thinking creature. it's the same as saying that magic stems from the brain. like you can not just manifest fireballs out of thin air, because you thought about them. but you know sci fi writers just ignore that part. because any other explanation would be less "scientific" and be too "fantastical". despite making 100% more sense then having a big brain.
Yeah, Hideki Sena, who wrote Parasite Eve, the novel, is a pharmacologist. There's nothing wrong with basing fantasy on something real. They expect audiences are educated enough to pick up on what is real and what's not and enjoy it. Neither the novel or the game is here to educate anyone on mitochondria. There is enough documentation on that if people are so inclined.
It's like how science-fiction tends to use buzzwords like "positronic" or "quantum" to make the cool plot device seem legit. Except the Japanese has a way of doing that with just about anything and going way overboard with it without really caring how much sense it makes, and it's strangely endearing. "Yeah, viruses can turn you into nigh-unkillable monsters with super powers, sure. Special mitochondria gives you psychic powers, why not? Also, nanomachines are _literally magic."_
arya is the crazy one, a bunch of people burst into flame and she immediatly starts assulting the one person who doesn't catch fire. Running out would be the normal response
Yes, mitochondria are in fact a separate cell that was absorbed by a larger cell, but they ended up building a symbiotic relationship. Our Mitochondria have their own unique DNA separate from the host, it was actually this adaptation that is likely what allowed larger, more complex organisms to evolve in the first place, because the mitochondria acts as the power house to allow for the operations of larger organs and thus organisms. The idea of a mitochondria eve is much less accepted as an idea, and if it were, it wouldn't have been human, since it would be the first of any species who has mitochondria, not just humans.
Um, mitochondrial Eve is actually quite accepted as an idea. She is just said to be the most recent matrilineal ancestor of all humans. There is DNA evidence for this (in mitochondria). Mitochondria is pretty commonly passed only from the mother.
To be fair to Daniel calling Aya’s date a wuss for not sticking around and bursting into flames, Daniel proves that he’d be willing to go that far. He’s definitely no hypocrite.
it is true that mitochondria have their own DNA And describing the events of the book is literally the plot of the witcher I which is also a sequel to the books
Well, they were the original lifeform along with a bunch of RNA lifeforms like viruses and bacteria. That is bound with algae. Created oxygen on the planet. As a byproduct, The organism is bound with pretty much all trees, plants, animals, marine life, on this planet. Anything that needs oxygen is essentially created. So it's actually god as in who created humanity. I think there are only a few organisms that don't have it.
@@orxy5316 yeah, it has seperate dna, but its less like an organism more like a machine now, its entirely reliant on the rest of the cell, as the cell is reliant on it
@@Turtleproof very fun combat, and Aya is a pretty cool protagonist. Her shoulder checking her lame ass date like a cool action hero whenever trouble shows up at the opera is a very fun bit of characterization.
I was wondering why RU-vid kept recommending me these weird "[game] expleened" videos and I just ignored them for the longest time. Imagine my excitement when I finally clicked on one and realized it was another Internet Historian channel. I would have watched these much sooner if I had known!
Look at what a copy of the game costs now, even it's sequel is pricey. The ps1 generation of games really were the best, most original and memorable, even if they seem flawed by people today. Ps2's days didn't come close. Not the worst, but not the best. 90s still BTFO'd anything from 2000s
@@derealized797 Agreed, it speaks volumes when a 20+ year old game is worth 4-5X it's original price. I hate to say it but I literally bought a PS Vita to have access to the whole ps1 library they had lol
This channel is awesome. Slept on it until a couple of days ago, thought to myself, "wait, only 10 uploads?" and I'm glad I dug in and found this playlist. No need to sequester these away as if they aren't up to snuff. The newer videos may have more production but I'd say these older ones are equal in quality. I can't stress enough how engaging this form of content is, far more entertaining than a let's play and it actually allows people to understand what something is with no previous experience. Keep up the damn fine work, you make this look effortless despite the obvious effort put in. :)
Thanks for giving us access to the unlisted vids. I started watching storymode like 2 months ago and this + the max payne one are my favorite videos you did. They're not as outdated or bad as you think they are
Yes! Parasite Eve is my favorite game ever, the battle system was just unique and awesome. I was mad the sequel was basically trying to be like Resident Evil
This is one of my favorite games from my childhood. Also, I read the book too (as an adult; there's no way I would have understood the medical stuff as a kid, lol).
I remember I had a Playstation game that came with previews to other games and the opera cutscene played for parasite eve. I was maybe 9yo and watching that intro was maybe the most confusing thing of my life. This video is proof that the game is indeed confusing and my childhood wasn't just a fever dream of unintelligible Playstation randomness.
I played this game in Kindergarten. I would go to school and draw pictures of skinless people who were on fire. I did this so often that it became a problem. Seriously, this game was incredible.
27:09 this is where it all clicked for me. Somebody's heard the term "Mitochondrial Eve", and then there was a bet on whoever misunderstood the term the most would get to write a book about it.
ca 2:04 It's thos subtle things like the Bose Bluetooth connection sounds in the background that I appreciate so much about this guy! Your content, no matter which channel, is absolutely AAA to me!
I’m replaying this video over and over because it’s the best serenade and this video is the equivalent to the arms of a man late at night I will die on this hill no I am not drunk (I am)
Finally got to see this game's ending thanks to this video! I got bored and stopped playing in the sewer level. Played on a mate's playstation and later moved back to NZ where the game never released.
According to the Endosymbiosis theory, mitochondria were originally some form of independent aerobic microorganism that was engulfed by what are now eukaryotic cells. So yes they do indeed have their own genetic information.
I was lucky enough to play Parasite Eve back in the day, had a pal region copy that we had to play in black and white for some reason. Really added to the atmosphere tbh.
I really liked this game when I was a teenager, I still play through it ever once in a while it's one of my all time favorites. It's like Final Fantasy and Resident Evil had a baby. The sequels aren't as good but they still have a lot of charm in their own right... Well except Third Birthday, that one is just bad.
The only good thing that the Third Birthday gave us was the "Escape from UB" remix theme, it actually sounds pretty awesome but aside from that, the game was dumpster fire for the series lol.
The third birthday was a goddamn fever dream. I had some fun with it, even knowing it was inferior, batshit insane story and all. Also, for extra wtf, just go back and imagine how many people you got killed.
"Your boyfriend is a wuss for running away from a paranormal event that would certainly have lead to his grizzly demise is he had stayed." That does sound like most of NYPD officers I've encountered.
Yea mitochondria dont have your dna they have circulair dna. The reason we even have mitochronia in our body is because in the time where there werent even animals and you had basically had just cells chilling in the ocea, you had some cells that would litteraly just go go power ranger and combine. For example lets look at Chloroplasts ( they are the organells(organells are the organs you find in a cell) in plants that do the photosynthesis thingy, they also have circulair dna instead of the plants dna) cell A(a cell that would evolve into plants) would eat a smaller cell B(this cells would evolve into chloroplasts) so normally when Cell A eats Cell B, Cell B would be "digested" but for some reason Cell B didnt get digested this time and was just chilling in Cell B. But here comes the neat thing: Cell B really only needs sunlight and some other materials to stay alive while it shits out stuff cell A needs to live, and Cell A shits out the other materials B needs to live which creates a symbiotic relationship where Cell B stays protected from bigger Cells while Cell A literally gets free energy. this relationship creates a build where one just need to chill at the surface of the ocean and youre golden. this build evolved into plants where chloroplasts take sunlight and some other shit to create ATP(ATP is the universal energy form every living thing uses) then animals came along with mitochrondia AND digestrive tracts that they use to take plants and turn them into chemical energy(sugars) which the chlorplats in turn turn into ATP, and then animals came along AGAIN with the same mitochondria but this time a digestive system that can turn ANIMAL matter into chemical energy for the mitochondria resulting in the first anime betrayal on earth. also important thing to after years of evolution they have lost their independence and so they are bassically just glorrified ovens (they do other stuff too tho) so eves mitochondria wouldnt be able to just up and do a drive by on ayas cells. its a rule in evolution that you cant really create dna bc you know evolution happens by natural selection and it kind of does the opposite of creating, so its really unlikely youd evolutionize an entire cell out of a organell. what might be possible would be combining dna and cells in a lab with a very small prod(idc whats it called) but at that point why make it about the mitochondria like get grandpa out of the spotlight. btw this is just the stuff i remember from highschool biology so there might be some small mistakes but this should give you a rough idea of the theory on how mitochondria came to be
8:55 Yes it's true. It's believed that the mitochondria is the evolutionary remains of a single celled organism from a stupidly long time ago. The organism was "taken in" by another bigger organism and instead of digesting the smaller lad, they just co-existed. And thus, the mitochondria's ancestor came to be
